Ask HN: Aren't we flagging too many submissions?

I noticed this article I submitted a couple minutes ago, about an internal reorganization at Blue Origin [0], was flagged a couple minutes after posting.

Do we collectively think we are going to degenerate into flame wars so easily even this relatively harmless piece about one of SpaceX's competitors is deemed too risky?

I'm all in favor of flagging and hiding articles that devolve into shouting matches and ad-hominem attacks, but proactively doing so before the first comment appears seems to be a bit excessive.
